Another wonderful weekend of maximum fun within a limited parameter. We've noticed lately that we rarely leave the 10-block radius of our house. In many ways, there is really no need. New restaurants are opening almost weekly, new markets and shops too. This weekend was the Wicker Park street festival so live music, food, drinks and artists set up, all within walking distance. 

Brad and his friend are in town visiting so we headed up to check things out. It was a perfect afternoon, warm and sunny but not hot. Great people watching - our neighborhood has a unique mix of multi-colored mohawks, full-body tattoo "suits," LP-like prepsters, families wheeling strollers, everything you can imagine. All coming together to provide a great, scene. 

Hubby bought three T-shirts (street festivals provide the best selection of one-of-a-kinds), and likely to be his new favorite of all times "Super C," modeled after SuperMan. He stripped down and change into it right at the festival. Not joking. 

We came home for perhaps our first summer Wicker Park People Rock Band concert and then back out for some delicious Crust pizza. Yum. 

Today a few errands, a little work but mostly just enjoying a lazy summer day. Hooray.
